BLANCI-IE BRENNEMAN Brst attracted public attention by being born in 18-, at Smith- ville Ohio where she has lived ever since. The village is noted for its generous u loving 7 and socially-inclined inhabitants.

ELLA WENGER claims -L ---- , as the date when an addition to the population of the United States took place. First acquiring a comprehensive knowledge of domestics, she realized that in order to live completely, she must needs cultivate her intellectual life, and for the past two years she has been a devoted worker engaged in mastering the Seminary Course. She has come out victor, and is now ready to do whatever her hand iindeth to do. GEORGE H. LAWRENCE ii rst gave vent to his feelings in Canton, Ohio, on February 18, 1887. In 1898 his parents brought him to Goshen, and in 1903 he entered the Commercial Department of Goshen College During this time he has d h' . prove imself a diligent student, and we bespeak for him a successful career in his chosen work. ANNA AUTENRIETH states that she scattered the few years before her arrival in G h C 1 . . . os en o lege in various parts of the United States. No state can claim her as its own. In spite of all the difficulties. which confronted her she was able t d o spen three years in College and gradu- ate from the Seminary Course. Her work in Elocution is worthy of special mention. LAWR , , , ena, on ana, is a true type of the strenuous Westerner. He has completed two years of academic work in High School, is an enthusiastic Aurora and has done considerable work in debate and oratory. He has won laurels behind the bat in the ball team, plays tennis well and in gymnastic work he excels. But the instructors in the Commercial Department are ready to testify that Holmes means business. Burning midnight oil and steady application have enabled him to complete three courses. He receives certificates for book-keeping and advertising and a diploma for shorthand. ENCE BRENE HOLMES, from Oregon born November 8 1888 at Hel M t I am a school-marni from Mo.-Mary Ramer.
